Free Web NovelChapter 1245: Chapter 1245: Disdain
Xue Fan introduced them, "This is Yun Qiluo, who plays Bishui, a newcomer. Please take care of her."
He then said to Yun Qiluo, "This is Lan Xinxin. You two are playing master and servant, and you’re not much different in age. You should have plenty to talk about, feel free to ask for her advice anytime."
Getting actors to bond and get familiar with each other is beneficial for filming, which is why Xue Fan deliberately introduced them.
Yun Qiluo immediately reached out sweetly, "Hello, senior, I’m Yun Qiluo."
Lan Xinxin’s smile faded considerably upon learning that she was starring as her palace maid, who was a minor internet celebrity.
There was an unintentional hint of disdain in her eyes, but out of respect for Xue Fan, she still reached out and lightly shook Yun Qiluo’s hand.
As for the male lead, He Shao, he merely nodded at Yun Qiluo lightly, with no discernible expression on his face, showing rather lukewarm attitude towards her.
Yun Qiluo found it odd why their reactions were like this upon learning she was playing Bishui.
She was quite sensitive to emotions, vaguely sensing that the two seemed somewhat unwilling to engage with her.
But it didn’t matter; she was here to act, after all.
She sniffed a little and looked towards the director.
Xue Fan waved at the nearby staff while saying to her, "Go get changed first, and then try out a scene later."
Upon mention of changing costumes, Yun Qiluo brightened up, her eyes lighting up, "Okay."
She was just a minor role; although her part was decent, right after the third and fourth female leads, she was ultimately a palace maid, so the accessories weren’t as elaborate, nor was the makeup particularly refined.
She quickly changed into her outfit, but while putting on makeup, the makeup artist stared at her face and hesitated for ages, not making a move.
Yun Qiluo asked curiously, "Sister, what’s wrong?"
The makeup artist replied, "... You’re too beautiful, I don’t know where to start."
She thought there was no need to put on makeup at all, considering her facial features and skin, even applying a base felt excessive.
In all her years of doing makeup, she’d never encountered someone like this!
Initially, hearing she was to do makeup for an internet celebrity playing a supporting role, she thought she might have to spend ages fixing up their skin after late nights, but seeing her in person... she felt her role as makeup artist was redundant.
Eventually, the makeup artist just filled in her eyebrows, enhanced the color a bit, and curled her lashes, applying mascara so her eyebrows and eyes wouldn’t look too plain under lighting and camera.
She also applied a light pink lip tint, and then it was done.
After doing her hair, Yun Qiluo looked at herself in the mirror, instantly feeling immersed, her face flushed with excitement.
Turns out being on set and acting was completely different from performing at home!!
Look at this outfit! Look at this hairstyle!
She stood up, lifting the hem of her ancient dress and spun around twice, excitedly itching to rush out and act several scenes!
Director Xue was explaining the upcoming scene to Lan Xinxin, which was going to be with Yun Qiluo. Midway through his explanation, he suddenly realized the surroundings had quieted down.
He looked up to see the young girl dressed in a palace maid outfit, lifting her skirt and walking out of the makeup room. Her movements and demeanor were extremely lively and adorable, resembling a naive little palace maid raised in a secluded ancient palace...
No, to be precise, she looked more like a little princess who had donned a palace maid’s attire out of sheer playfulness.
